In the 41-year-old Rolling Stones playlist, maybe everyone has a song to sing to their hearts. But there is a song that is still unique.
"The elephant's long nose is soaring, and the whole world is holding up hope." It is the "paradise of happiness" in the hearts of every Rolling Stone.
In 2021, on the occasion of the 35th anniversary of the birth of "Happy Paradise", when Zhang Aijia, who was dressed in red, sang the first lyrics from the camera, then, Qi Yu, Pan Yueyun, Wang Xinlian, Huang Yunling, Wan Fang, Xin Xiaoqi and other female singers of Rolling Stone Records appeared in turn, recalling the strong impact of killing and trend art, which once again made people tearful.
"In 35 years, when I sing again, I can still see a group of youthful and spirited teenagers playing guitars and singing next to the boulevard of Taiwan University." Some netizens sighed.
In 1986, news of the relocation of the Yuanshan Zoo in Taiwan made headlines.
In order to cooperate with the warm migration of the zoo, Zheng Huajuan, producer of the Rolling Stones album, collected artists from the company to record the first "concept" album "Happy Paradise" with the theme of caring for animals and environmental protection in the Chinese music scene. The title song of the same name, "Happy Paradise", with its light and melodious style, instantly became popular and became a household name.
Although the MV is now roughly made, the background is extremely simple, and some shots have not even kept up with the corresponding singers, but these small flaws are insignificant in front of this rare lineup.
On the evening of December 31 of the same year, Rolling Stone Records also held a New Year's Eve concert.
Zhou Huajian, Huang Yunling, Zheng Huajuan, Wang Xinlian, Qi Yu, Pan Yueyun, Li Zongsheng and more than a dozen other singers participated in the performance, and the 12,000 spectators in the stadium and the 6 million listeners on the radio and the 18 performers of Rolling Stone Records spent an unforgettable 4 hours together, cheers and applause, the momentum was unparalleled, and led the trend of holding New Year's Eve concerts.
In 2010, on the occasion of the 30th birthday of the Rolling Stones, it was decided to hold an unprecedented party event, and on November 27 of that year, more than 80 singers gathered at the Taipei Arena to bring a feast full of growth and memories, and its name is still - Happy Paradise.
For everyone who loves pop songs, finding a sense of déjà vu in those memorable records is like building your own happy paradise.
The "2021 Version of Happy Paradise", which once again evoked the memories of music fans, appeared in Zhang Aijia's first youth culture documentary variety show "Remembering Youth".
As Zhang Aijia's first youth culture documentary variety show, the guests of "Remembering Youth" range from thirteen to ninety-eight years old, radiating singers, actors, painters, Internet celebrities and other circles. Different from other recitation and interview programs, the guests' diaries, excerpts, works, etc. in their youth were innovatively selected, and through the offline youth recitation form recitation and interpretation, the guests were connected with other ordinary reciters, trying to share their feelings about youth with a group of young people.
The show's finale shows a pop-up event recorded on the streets of Taipei in April this year, in which these familiar faces re-sing "Happy Paradise" from 35 years ago, and the footage in the old MV appears from time to time, making people feel that time and space are intertwined, and they can't help but sigh at the passage of time.
After so many years, perhaps someone has forgotten this song. But seeing this 1986 song, which still shines today, really makes people sigh that good music is always young, just as good singers are always young.
